Looks like your primary is leaking. Other than that, its a spitting image of my bike most of the time!

The clutch inspection cover leaks like that if you reuse the gasket. A thin layer of RTV will cure that if you don't have a new gasket laying around.

Froggy, what's with the rag in the oil cooler? Is it to keep the wind chill away from the oil?

It helps the oil get up to temp, according to my swing arm dipstick thermometer; the oil is about 20 degrees F warmer with the rag blocking the airflow. Still wasn't enough to stop the oil from turning into a frothy espresso.

I am a redneck at heart, I am allowed to have a busted TV and other broken electronics in my driveway. I just need a couch to put on the front patio. : )

No reason to go get all uppity, a van seat works just fine as porch furniture. If you are careful, you can get a few of them together that match.

Srwitt, that's kind of sad, your dirty is my clean.

LOL it doesn't get washed too often. But I do like it to be pretty well spotless. However I did not wash it last year before putting it away, because I never really put it away, it just got too cold to wash.

This year its seen a spray down, and one use of Plexus, I haven't bothered with the wheels yet.
